Welcome to My Lab Journal

Hi! I'm Aarush Srivastava, and welcome to my portfolio and Lab Journal.

This website is a place where I bring together the things I'm interested in, the projects I'm building, the competitions I'm participating in, and the things I'm learning along the way.

What You'll Find Here

My portfolio is centered around STEM, computer science, chess, mathematics, science, and building things.

💻 Computer Science & Programming

I enjoy programming and building projects that solve problems or make something interesting. I've worked with technologies including Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Next.js, and other web-development tools.

This portfolio itself is one of my projects. I'm constantly experimenting with new ideas and improving the things I've already built.

♟️ Chess

Chess is another major part of what I do.

I play in tournaments, study openings and tactics, and work on improving my game. My portfolio includes my chess information and ratings, while the Lab Journal can be used to document tournaments, lessons, preparation, and experiences from competitions.

🧪 Science & STEM

I'm also interested in science and STEM competitions. I enjoy learning how things work, investigating questions, and connecting what I learn in school to projects and real-world problems.

The Lab Journal gives me a place to document experiments, science projects, observations, and things I discover.

📐 Mathematics & Learning

Math is another important part of my academic journey. I enjoy challenging myself with advanced mathematics and using what I learn to solve problems.

I'll use the Lab Journal to record interesting problems, lessons, challenges, and things that help me understand a topic better.

My Projects

This portfolio isn't just a collection of information about me. It's also a record of what I build.

Some projects are websites, some are programming projects, and others are experiments with new ideas and technologies.

I want this site to show not only the finished result, but also the process behind it: what I tried, what worked, what didn't, and what I learned.

Why I Made the Lab Journal

The Lab Journal is meant to be more than a blog.

I wanted a place where I could keep track of my progress over time and look back at how my ideas and skills develop.

Entries can cover:

• Projects
• Programming
• Science
• Mathematics
• Chess
• Competitions
• Experiments
• Things I'm learning
• Challenges and lessons learned

Each entry is another snapshot of my journey.

What's Next

I'm still learning, building, competing, and coming up with new ideas.

That means this portfolio will keep changing too.

I'll continue adding projects, improving existing features, documenting competitions, and publishing new Lab Journal entries as I learn more.

Thanks for visiting my portfolio and checking out my Lab Journal.

This is just the beginning. 🚀
